Desire for beauty

Sometimes, she says, she waits for hours “until the sunlight hits exactly the way I want it

to.” Every captured instant is sacred and unrepeatable — a piece of authenticity in a world

that thrives on endless reproduction. It’s proof that art and strategy can walk hand in

hand when the purpose is true. As she puts it, “art materializes feelings, just as technology

materializes so many business languages.”

In the end, Art Must Go On is more than a photography exhibit; it is a manifesto about the

freedom to choose. By presenting the perfection of a flower, Hanna reminds us of our own

divine origins.

Hanna Luisa Bakor’s art is born from an act of rescue. Not a rescue of something lost, but

the rediscovery of an essence that was always there, patiently waiting to be heard. After

years immersed in the logic of business and the weight of life’s “aches,” she made a

radical, philosophical choice: she trained her eyes to focus on beauty.

This journey didn’t begin during the pandemic, but way back in her childhood, when her

parents designed a logo with two tulips for a brand that carried her name: “Hanna Luisa.”

Decades later, as if by some predestined echo, those flowers would return as the pillar of

her artistic expression. Her photography, therefore, isn’t just about capturing the world —

it’s the consequence of a deep decision to find herself again. It’s an invitation to dive

inward, to uncover universes that often pass us by unnoticed in everyday life.

At the heart of her artistic process is the macro lens — used not as a technical gimmick,

but as an extension of her awareness. It works, as she explains, like a magnifying glass. It

doesn’t zoom in from a distance; it physically brings her closer to the subject, demanding

radical intimacy.

In her debut series, Art Must Go On, her “super focus” — a real condition that became her

most powerful creative tool — turns her close-ups of flora and fauna into something that

transcends botany. They become meditations. By getting so close, the image dissolves

into abstraction. The veins of a petal become rivers; pollen turns into constellations.

Paradoxically, hyper-realism leads us straight into a dreamlike world. As the artist herself

describes, it’s a reflection of what happened within her: “a deep dive into the essence of

things, the root of life, the detail that holds everything together.”

This search for purity of form is anything but naïve; it’s deliberate. With a strong

background in business, Hanna applies the same branding strategies to her art — not

merely to thrive, but to protect her message. The single edition of each piece, the

museum-quality production, and her refusal to edit or manipulate any image are not just

market choices; they are a statement of value.
